Yep….was at that race.Originally posted by EvelB7 View PostDublin Nc, probably 15 years ago-idiot on 4 wheeler runs wide open into trailer-races stopped and airlifted out. We finished the feature around 4am. My point is it is not just the World, it happens every weekend somewhere.Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

I've been to multi day events at different tracks and the rule was that they needed to be parked after the last race of the night.2021 race count

I remember some after hours events at the small track on the grounds of volusia one year with some 4 wheelers, side by sides and stuff…….it was kind of a blur but we could hear them hauling butt around the track on them and then what probably was a track person hollering and screaming a little bit later after a few good races.
I get what everyone is saying, they are obviously dangerous and planetpierce aren’t the only ones acting stupid on them.Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

We got jammed up at Hales Corners years ago when we had a 2AM feature with our haulers on the track.
At 141 we hosted a late nite race where you had to exit your car every lap to drink a longneck Miller the get back in and make another lap. Strictly unsanctioned.Member of the Luxemburg Speedway Hall of Fame

Eldora is not the first track to put restrictions on the use of four wheelers. Other big events have done so before Eldora. You ever try to get some sleep at a track when the four wheelers are buzzing around the pits until 6am ? I can tell you it is not a joy.

Lol. Yep, that’s it. Nope, Tony is being smart. He sees the writing on the wall. And none of us know what this idiot with Pierce did. It must have been pretty bad for the Pierce’s of all people to accept it and move on.Originally posted by misguided1 View PostEarl is rolling over in his grave. What is happening here is what is wrong with late model dirt track racing. The people making the decisions on this and other rules are clueless. They are as dumb as a box of rocks. Who in the blank is making these decisions? You can either like or dislike Bobby Pierce. You don't DQ a driver over something as silly as this. Especially the biggest race of the year. What would have Earl done? He would have impounded the 4 wheeler and banned the driver of the machine from the grounds not DQ the driver. Earl had common sense. Earl would have never had an invitation only race. IE the Dream. He also would have fought like hell to keep the track running in 2020. Tony Stewart has become a corporate woke wimp.
Rules are rules. You are with a driver, he is responsible for you, so if you are a moron, and fight etc, he pays the price. Very good incentive to leave the idiots elsewhere.
Earl made some crappy petty calls. Cracks me up, back in my day, wtf ever. No matter the era, stupid decisions are made by us all, no one is perfect. But this was the right move.
And golf carts are in the same boat I hope.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

Getting dinged for ATV shenanigans is nothing new.
We were out at Perris, CA for the Oval Nationals in November of, '02 or '03 when the Saturday night finale' got rained out. We hung around the pits for an hour or so after they'd called the race and rescheduled for the following night. Ricky Gaunt and another driver whose name escapes me went out on the track, which was pretty muddy by that time, and did a couple of hot laps on 4 wheelers. I believe Don Kazarian was the promoter at that time and still is. He had the two teams load up and leave the property despite the fact that they were both qualified and locked in to start in the A-main finale' the following night. The Ovals is one of the biggest shows on the west coast.Last edited by CIRF; 09-11-2021, 11:02 AM.
